Kitchen sink had been draining slowly for months. He cleared it, then showed me the grease he pulled out and explained why it kept coming back. No upsell, no drama, and the price was what I was quoted on the phone.

Garbage Disposal Repair & Installation in Polk City, Iowa
A disposal that hums without turning is jammed, not dead, and that is usually a short visit. A disposal that leaks from the body is finished, because the housing has rusted through and there is nothing to seal. We can tell you which yours is over the phone most of the time.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Tree roots and the front yard
Mature trees are one of the nicer things about older Polk City streets and one of the harder things on sewer lines. Roots do not break into a sound pipe - they find a joint that has already opened slightly and then widen it. Cutting them buys a season; lining the pipe ends it.

Bought an older house and had them scope the sewer before closing. Found roots in two joints. We used the video to negotiate the repair into the sale. Best money I spent on that purchase.

Great communication. Text when they were on the way, a photo of what failed, and the invoice matched the quote exactly. That should be normal and somehow it isn't.

Garbage Disposal Repair in Polk City: common questions
My disposal just hums - is it broken?
Usually not. Something is jammed against the impellers. Cut the power at the switch and the breaker, then use the hex key in the bottom of the unit to turn it by hand. If it frees up, hit the red reset button. If not, call (833) 435-9778.
How long does a garbage disposal last?
Eight to twelve years with normal use. Once the housing leaks it is done. If it is under eight years and simply jammed or tripped, repair is nearly always the better call.
Can you install a disposal where there is not one?
Yes, provided there is a switched outlet under the sink or we can arrange one. We handle the drain reconfiguration and the dishwasher connection as part of the install.
What should never go in a disposal?
Grease, coffee grounds, eggshells, fibrous vegetable skins and pasta or rice. Those are what we find in most of the Polk City kitchen lines we end up cabling.
Do you work on commercial properties in Polk City?
Yes. Restaurants, salons, clinics, offices, churches and multi-tenant buildings across Polk City. We schedule outside trading hours at no extra cost so a repair does not cost you a day of business.
